Konstantin TsioDtovsky (1857-1935)
Tsiolkovsky was known as the father of human space flight. He was a rocket scientist, an inventor and a pioneer in space research. His work contained the designs for rockets with thrusters, airlocks, multi-stage boosters, sateUites, space suits and even a system for providing food and air to a space colony. He was a man light years ahead of his time and it is thanks to him that Russia was the first nation to cross the final frontier.
Sergei Korolyov (1906-1966)
He was a scientist and the rocket engineer that put the first satellite. Sputnik 1, into space in 1957. He was also the person responsible for Sputnik 2, putting the dog Laika into space and landing the first probe, Luna 2, on the moon. Most of аll, he was the person in charge of the Vostok and Voskhod space programmes which successfully put the first man in space in 196l, allowed the first space walk and led the way for all manned space flights after that Korolyov was a legend in his own time and in ours.

Ответ

I’d like to tell you about Yuri Gagarin. He was the first human to go into space and the first man to orbit the Earth on 12th April 1961 in Vostok 1. His only space flight lasted 108 minutes, but it became one of the most important events in history. After his flight, Gagarin travelled around the world as an ambassador for Russia and spoke about Soviet achievements in space. He is remembered as a brave and famous cosmonaut.

Discuss:

• Would you like to go into space? Why (not)? Yes, I would, because it would be an amazing experience to see the Earth from space.
• What do you think about space tourism? I think space tourism is exciting, but it is very expensive and still quite risky.
• What fields of science should a person study to become a scientist? a cosmonaut? To become a scientist, a person should study physics, chemistry, biology or mathematics. To become a cosmonaut, a person should study physics, engineering, medicine and space technology.
